Walkthrough:

First things first, turn on your dm voice. You really, really need to.

Now, follow the feminine voice through trap filled halls, fight through Jarilith and Rakshasa to free the poor damsel.

When fighting Jariliths, remember they are a type of demon, and so have a DR of #/coldiron+holy. Rakshasas have a damage reduction of #/Pierce+good.

Work your way down the one way halls until you reach the shrine room. You will need to clear the two side halls before you can continue forward. Be wary of enemies that open the doors to join the fights.

Once the sides are clear, you can move into the bridge rooms that run parallel out of the shrine area. Clear both sides. Before heading further in, there is an optional under the water.

Swim underneath and find the secret door in the middle. There is a lever which will open the side, submerged portcullis. Swim down this way to a hidden chamber. When you pop out of the water, the doors will open and bad guys will come pouring out. Cloudkill and hide in the water, or charms and have them fight each other, or both. It is a tough fight, but there is a chest at the end of it, if you have someone who can open the locked chest.

Intelligence person using the center pillar will activate a teleportation circle that will transport you back to the shrine room. Otherwise just swim back.

Now head further in, clearing the halls until you reach the jail cells. Kill the jailor and get the key from the far chest. Now free the damsel, who you will take home and marry and live happily ever after. Or I guess if you are a girl, then you can free the damsel, go out clubbing, and get lots of free drinks from suckers. Okay, none of the above is actually going to happen, because this is no damsel. She’s a man, baby, yeahya! Or a mean cat-demon thing with friends coming in to help her. Defeat the final Rakshasas and loot the chest in the back room.

There will be 1 dragon relic in the chest.
